Captain Liu was very much at ease now. He was somewhat anxious because he didn’t have Ye Jian’s ID number, but listening to Head Captain Xu’s tone, he seemed to know her, and he was immediately filled with hope.
“If that’s the Ye Jian, I know, then, you must absolutely make her stay!” Head Captain Xu, Xu Yu, said quickly but steadily: “I will contact her regiment and verify her identity immediately. I will give you your reply in two minutes, first, get her to stay!”
Ye Jian. Sixth Squad actually encountered Ye Jian…, Ye Jian, who had worked together with him in Australia, who also managed to kill Red Scorpion from the vents. If it was her, then Sixth Squad must make her stay.
Three minutes later, Ye Jian spotted Captain Liu in a Ghillie suit. Captain Liu was watching the young female soldier in forest camo, remembering Head Captain Xu’s solemn orders, Captain Liu walked over and respectably saluted at Ye Jian.
A female soldier of the Special Forces! A god-like existence within the military! A character that was even more impressive than male soldiers! He needed to be very respectful!
Not only were his actions respectful, even his speech was filled with respect. After announcing his troop’s serial and making a basic self-introduction, he continued: “Head Captain Liu said we must do everything to make you stay, he also mentioned that with your participation, our mission would end more successfully!”
Who? Head Captain Xu? But she didn’t know of any soldier with the last name ‘Xu’ in her memories.
“The comms have yet to be cut off, if you have any questions, you can discuss it with Head Captain Xu.” Captain Liu was really looking forward to Ye Jian agreeing to it immediately. They allowed Brother Hong to escape all to lure out the big fish, and they planned to swoop up Brother Hong’s drug manufacturing network in one go; before he was allowed to escape, their team had made very detailed plans and arrangements with the information they had at hand, who would’ve known, they managed to catch the big fish. Still, they never expect the fish to be this massive!
With three sniping spots, they needed three snipers. With Ye Jian’s addition, it was just right!
Seeing Captain Liu acting so cautious, Ye Jian suddenly felt sorry in her heart. She hastily said: “Then let me talk to Head Captain Xu for now. I’m sorry, I can’t remember who Head Captain Xu is.”
“That’s okay, that’s absolutely fine!” Captain Liu noticed she didn’t refuse immediately, and he quickly led the way in front.
After Ye Jian heard Head Captain Xu’s voice, she had remembered who Head Captain Xu was in less than three seconds.
“I haven’t worked with you since returning last time. Who would’ve thought after a few years have passed, the opportunity to work with you came up again.” After not seeing each other for several years, Xu Yu had risen up the ranks to the Head Captain of the border patrol. When he heard Ye Jian’s voice, although there were small changes, her voice still matched with the voice in his memory.
Ye Jian also chuckled: “And I was still wondering when did I meet a Head Captain Xu. It turns out it was someone I knew all along.”
They didn’t make too much small talk. After a few exchanges, they changed the topic to a proper business; Xu Yu said: “Since the death of Vietnam’s Red Scorpion, during the past few years, the drug manufacturing sites in Laos developed and expanded instantly. That Brother Hong we’re after, he’s already been running amok at Mekong River for two years, and we’ve also kept a constant eye on him for two years…”
After briefing Ye Jian about the ins and outs of the situation, he also explained the problem they were facing, “We have three elevated vantage points, but we only have two snipers, so we have no way to fill the last vantage point. To ensure everything goes as planned, we would like you to take over one vantage point.”
“We have just asked your regimental commander, and he said it’d be up to your own decisions, the military will not interfere. What do you say?”
